My signature is 1604 characters including spaces. Using a lot of characters doesn't mean the signature will be big. HTML/BBcode requires a lot of code. I think it could be increased.
Currently my sig will keep working, but I cannot edit it because I will get the 1000 character max. error
As far as I know there already is a maximum number of lines rule included in the forum rules, so restricting the number of characters shouldn't be that important imo (just low enough so spammers cannot put a 20 page signature).
EDIT: My sig looks terrible in IE, and way too large

Maybe this works (can't preview as a sig):
Hmm, window is kinda small. Should be possible to increase the /CODE preview window in the vB settings.
Code:
vB changes xxx="xxx" to xxx=\"xxx\". Hope that's OK.

sig updated. Looks fine in Firefox.
Also, the forward slashes it puts in the code breaks it, so I removed them.
*edit*
tried it in IE, and it seems to work fine there too. Except there's no background image in IE for some reason, it's just white.

Thanks. It also looks better in IE now. Except that the background image (the texture) doesn't work. Any ideas?

another option is to use an animated GIF.
Anyway, that's one reason I don't use IE; pages tend not to work as well

Maybe the code for the background should use ="url-to-image.jpg". At the moment it is without " I think.
